Coralife PC ?

[fkdenton]

Ok I got a 48in 4X65w Coralife lunar aqualight today. I bought it used. When I get it home I notice 1 bulb isnt working. I replace the bulb and it still dosent work. That is when I notice that 2 wires are off the endcap. I ended up just replacing the endcap because I would have had to soder the wires to the pieces that broke off and I would have not got it smoth enough. I replaced the endcap and tried the bulb and it worked. I then sodered the wires together put electric tape on it and plugged it in. The bulb was back to not working. In adition the one behind it quit working. So now the bulbs on the left side work and the ones on the right side do not. Witch is wierd because they are on two seperate power cords. Only 1 bulb from each cords works. Any ideas?

I got a used coralife 4x65 48" light from a respectable person on here and almost the same thing happend to me. All the bulbs were new and it worked great for 2 days then one of the left side bulbs quit working. I swapped it with a 50/50 bulb from my old light and it worked. But when I turned it back on, the other one on that side quit working! So now its got one side with 50/50 bulbs and the other side with what it came with. I emailed coralife about it and they pretty much had no clue other than maybe a vibration from moving it/replacing the bulbs damaged the other one. All the bulbs are going good now and have been for a few months now.
